Tablets have not really picked up the way manufacturers would have wanted them to, but this can’t really stop them manufacturing new ones. iBall has recently launched the iSlide 3G Q45i in India for Rs 5,999. It is a 7-incher tablet that comes with 1024×600 display and multi-touch. Powered by a quad-core Intel Atom X3 64 bit processor running at …

Images: Alex Cranz/Installadz Remember when laptops were laptops and tablets were tablets? Well, those days are gone, replaced with acrobatic foldables, detachables, and liquid-cooled enigmas. Buying a new computing machine has never been such a strange decision as it is today, so we decided to round up the very strangest hybrid devices out there and see if they really were …

Image: AP Machines are taking over the world, and some members of the European Parliament aren’t very happy about it. Robots in the EU soon be classed as “electronic persons” if the Parliament adopts a new set of rules on robotics. The drafted motion would mean that robots had “specific rights and obligations,” and that robot owners have to pay …

A local engineer who came up with a robotics training start-up last year, announced on Saturday he would adopt 70 slum children to sharpen their start-up culture. A initiative was launched by young entrepreneur Akshay Ahuja under which these children will be trained on a fortnightly basis. “Seventy slum children will be trained on a fortnightly basis at the co-working …

DARPA’s BigDog is a four-legged robot that’s too noisy for covert ops on the battlefield. But a different beast-inspired bot from Italy could have use elsewhere: Its legs allow it to trek through tough terrain in disasters, and springs up if it gets knocked over. The Italian Institute of Technology brings us HyQ2Max, a robot made of aluminum alloy and …

The Garmin Virb Elite was one of our favorite action cams a year ago, which was a big surprise from a company known more for navigation and sports watches. It had some unique features and impressively sharp optics. It was big and bulky, though, and it topped out at 1080p/30fps, so it couldn’t hang with the big boys. Well the …

Not all robots needs to be big and clever – those that are small and simple could prove just as useful. Like this little thing created by researchers at EPFL, which folds, flips, jumps and walks, while only weighing four grams. Created by the Reconfigurable Robotics Laboratory – which has strong robot form – it is in fact modelled on …

In a move to regain its market share, John Chen, CEO of the Canadian smartphone manufacturer BlackBerry, hinted that a phablet could be a strategic product for turning around the company’s fortunes. “If we will do another thing, we will probably go to phablet. I think if you look at our strategy and if you look at where the market …

Locusts get a bad rap-noise and plagues!-but they’ve inspired Israeli engineers to make bug-like robots that could be a godsend in emergencies. A team at Tel Aviv University has developed a five-inch long, locust-inspired robot that weighs an ounce and jumps a whopping 11 feet high and 4.5 feet wide. Their findings were published last month in the journal Bioinspiration …

Dear robots of the world, don’t for a second think you’re fooling us with adorable demonstrations of your crafting capabilities this holiday season. Because one second you’re making paper snowflakes, and the next you’re using those same scissors to usurp your human handlers. We’re on to you! The folks at RE2 Robotics should know better than this. That being said, …
